Abstract:
One example of a torque transfer system for a rotorcraft includes a first rotational joint connected to a rotorcraft rotary shaft. The first rotational joint receives a portion of a torque generated by rotation of the rotorcraft rotary shaft and transfers the portion of the torque to a rotorcraft rotating component. The torque transfer system also includes a second rotational joint of a different type connected to the rotorcraft rotary shaft. The second rotational joint receives a remainder of the torque generated by the rotation of the rotorcraft rotary shaft and transfers the remainder of the torque to the rotorcraft rotating component.
